Having lived majority of his life in the UAE, Vedant Sharma is a pure example of an individual who has been able to see the iconic transformation of the Middle East since 1990. This motivated him to join his family business in the packaging industry. With a bachelor’s in business management and business experience in North America, he is able to apply international business practices in the diverse culture of the UAE.

His father came to the UAE in 1996 and opened up the family business with merely 50 customers. With the instability of the global economy, Vedant quickly realized that the packaging industry has always been the least effected. Today, his family business has catered to more than 5,000 different customers in the Middle East region. Having a well-organized supply chain and fast customer service were the key components to the success of the business.

Moving forward, his goal is for BF PACK to become a global brand for providing not just excellent products and services but the right solution for each customer.
